High-dynamic-range imaging (HDRI or HDR) is a set of techniques used in imaging and photography to reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity than is possible with standard digital imaging or photographic techniques. The aim is to present the human eye with a similar range of luminance as that which, through the visual system, is familiar in everyday life. The human eye, through adaptation of the iris (and other methods) adjusts constantly to the broad dynamic changes ubiquitous in our environment. The brain continuously interprets this information so that most of us can see in a wide range of light conditions. Most cameras, on the other hand, cannot.<br />
<br />
HDR images can represent a greater range of luminance levels than can be achieved using more 'traditional' methods, such as many real-world scenes containing very bright, direct sunlight to extreme shade, or very faint nebulae. This is often achieved by capturing and then combining several different narrower range exposures of the same subject matter. Non-HDR cameras take photographs with a limited exposure range, resulting in the loss of detail in highlights or shadows.<br />
<br />
The two primary types of HDR images are computer renderings and images resulting from merging multiple low-dynamic-range (LDR) or standard-dynamic-range (SDR) photographs. HDR images can also be acquired using special image sensors, like an oversampled binary image sensor.<br />
Here's a few of my HDR pictures:<br />

<p>Your monitor can only display an 8 bit range of gray values, we deal with that by using a (modified) gamma correction. Any ordinary sRGB image is in this sense already an HDR image.</p>Sun, 27 Dec 2015 11:04:43 -0800nobody@flickr.com (smitrasmitra)tag:flickr.com,2004:/groupcomment/72157660523965444Reply to HDR suckshttp://www.flickr.com/groups/1304786@N23/discuss/72157626839326193/72157652062438775/

<p>The goal of HDR in the beginning was to provide a higher dynamic range than modern digital cameras could capture. Some photographers continue to use HDR to great effect; While others continue to (according to some) heavily overuse it. Still others roundly criticize any and all who use HDR as individuals who are responsible for the systematic destruction of photography as an art form. A picture is worth a thousand words:<br />

<p>HDR over cooked or well balanced is just a creative tool to try and display what yours eyes see and your camera can't.<br />
<br />
If we see in HDR why not capture it, i have sold many images taken using 3 images merged into HDR to paramount pictures, walt disney and viacom. Its the only way i can think of that captures the true essence of what i actually see.<br />
<br />
Once you start this HDR journey you realize that something is always missing from a single image..its very hard to stop once you have started. <br />
<br />
I personally love this technique.</p>Wed, 14 Jan 2015 03:28:17 -0800nobody@flickr.com (warrencarl)tag:flickr.com,2004:/groupcomment/72157649879016728Hdr rules !http://www.flickr.com/groups/1304786@N23/discuss/72157647375143673/

<p>To put it very bluntly, the originator of this post is talking from a place where the sun never shines....<br />
Fortunately, he has been deleted from Flickr ....... ;)<br />
<br />
The point of true HDR is to improve the tonal range of a photograph. I.e. Seeing details in both shadows, highlights and the mid range, all at the same time. I was a professional photographer way back in the 1960's using both colour and black &amp; white film stock, and doing my own darkroom work. Even back then, I was manipulating photos to improve tonal range... It is nothing knew.<br />
<br />
What is relatively new is that with software, it is now very easy to produce HDR,. I suspect the originator is getting confused between genuine HDR ( which when done properly, should be almost undetectable) and Tone Mapping. Whilst tone mapping is a part of the modern HDR process, it does not in itself produce an HDR image. It can however, when taken to extremes produce some quite bizarre results. Some like that, some hate it!<br />
<br />
I could really bore the pants off everyone discussing this subject, if you wish to be bored, or haven't got a clue what I'm talking about, feel free to message me! I'm happy to impart knowledge and to receive your flack too.....<br />
<br />
Here is a genuine HDR image I produced a few years ago without the benefit of tone mapping and fancy software..... It consists of 3 separate images at 1.5 stop intervals and blended by cutting and blending using layers in Photoshop. It would have been a lot easier with photomatix pro, as I now know, but hey, we are all still learning!<br />
